On August 30, Gisela, in charge of David Denies social responsibility in Cordoba, helped organize a big party for the children from the community centers and surrounding areas. A group of volunteers came up with the idea back in July. And so far the campaign has succeeded in gathering more volunteers and collecting toys, candy, …

CORDOBA DOVE SHOOTING REPORT
During August and September, my two favorite months for dove shooting, birds were very strong in the hills, and hatching. For the last 7 years we’ve been in a drought, so farmers have not been seeding winter wheat. Thanks to this year’s rainy weather, all the fields are green with winter wheat. It’s good news …

Hunting season at San Juan Lodge has just come to an end after a whirlwind year of full bookings since early April. So, we are happy… and tired! Both summer and fall were wet, and what followed was a generally mild winter. Overall, we saw high volumes of birds and guests experienced great hunts. The …

Ducking down in Argentina – The Field Magazine
Jonathan Young loves the people, the food, the humour… but, most of all, he loves the sport. Tomas, our designated guide, climbed aboard and within 20 minutes we’d arrived at our flight pond. Pond? It was more a mini lake. How would we manage to pull in the birds when they had such an acreage …
